SPOILERS for to be hero x ep 2

"they were boyfriends! They were boyfriends your honour! boyfriends I tell ye!"

- i yell as they drag me away to the yaoi asylum.

Cries

I don't know if it's the translation but like...dude you are down BAD if you're fucking EMAILING him. the only thing you could do that'd be more desperate would be taking one of those creepy ass doves and tying a gotdam message to its leg and hoping it finds him

my favourite weirdo 

the thing is that childhood doesn't just end when you turn 18 or when you turn 21. it's going to end dozens of times over. your childhood pet will die. actors you loved in movies you watched as a kid will die. your grandparents will die, and then your parents will die. it's going to end dozens and dozens of times and all you can do is let it. all you can do is stand in the middle of the grocery store and stare at freezers full of microwave pizza because you've suddenly been seized by the memory of what it felt like to have a pizza party on the last day of school before summer break. which is another ending in and of itself

TBHX EP 2 SPOILERS

If I had a nickel for every time Li Haoling did a black and white doomed yaoi on an original work, I'd have two nickels... Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice

wreck and nice as satosugu ☹️

from this jjk scene!

😀someone on bilibili mentioned in the comments that wreck's and nice's apartment had rainbow magnets on their mini fridge im sooooooooo normal guys

source btw

"Oh my bestie isn't texting me guess I'll actually wreck shit now bc then he'll talk to me right?"

nicewreck as ARE WE STILL FRIENDS? send tweet

the most annoying people are people who don't understand storytelling. they be like "oooo how convenient that this thing happened to the main character in the very beginning". yeah no shit. that's why the story begins here

Lin still really needs to be set free from the actual mess he is in, my man did NOT sign up for any of this. I mean like literally he did but that's besides the point. How was dude supposed to know about Nice's boyfriend bestfriend?

They were doomed from the start fr

THAT’S IT! JUAN JIE HAS GONE TOO FAR!!!! HOW DARE SHE BREAKS THEM APART!!!! I NEED TO TEAR THAT BITCH INTO PIECES!!!!

To Be Hero X, gayer than anticipated

miss J really said forced close proximity, (corporate) arranged marriage, love triangle (?), fake death, hit post and send

what do u mean the nemesis immediately knew his rival had been replaced and is intensely jealous to nice's girlfriend and apparently was set off by nice not replying to his messages and then has a complete breakdown when he learns what happened to the original....

angry post

i have a personal problem with this kind of attitude. it's not a petty thing i am unreasonably angry about. there is a politics of translation and it affects one's understanding of art and popular culture/cultural geopolitics.

yes, tbhx has an unprecedented world wide release for a donghua/Chinese media and it's vital for its popularity, especially among transnational fandom spaces. Transcreated works are important for easier access. BUT, my gripe with the Japanese dub of a Chinese media WILL never be resolved. I am not talking about the quality, the issue lies in the very creation of the Japanese dub of a donghua itself. Let me give you an example.

Last year, we had an optional course called translation studies and one of the first things our professor asked was : who are the writers of A Doll's House and Waiting for Godot? He told those few of us who had read these texts closely to shut our mouth and let others take a guess. Most people answered : British writers. The texts are English texts. Because it's so famous among literature enthusiasts and when a piece of literature has a 'classic' tag attached to it, we tend to generalize and oversimplify it. So, a Norwegian playwright's original Norwegian play or an Irish playwright's play originally written in French- both get labelled as British literature. Get my point?

The anime industry is justifiably dominated by Japanese productions but when we forget to accommodate the nuances, the origin culture decays. It is, in many senses, a form of subtle cultural imperialism brought by ignorance.

People complain about Link Click's 'poor marketing' but I think Haolin was clever doing so. Even in the reviews by Indian anime bros™ I see them trying to pronounce 'donghua'. People RECOGNIZE that Link Click is a Chinese media, it's NOT an anime. You may laugh at those link click related youtube video titles saying stuff like : China is taking over anime, this Chinese anime is better than your favourite anime, PEAK Chinese anime, the best anime of 2021 is NOT Japanese?!, Link Click is taking over anime, China's hidden gem, China might have created the best anime of the year- CHINA IS IMPORTANT.

Whenever people talk about Chinese donghua- Link Click, Heaven Official's Blessing, Master of Diabolism etc are mentioned and people KNOW that it looks like anime but not really anime. It's... something... something else. This distinction is critical and essential.

Now, thanks to censorship (the Chinese version is not available on any official platform), many people think (not all people dig that deep while watching things, like come on) Spiritpact is a JAPANESE anime. Who the heck is Tanmouki or whatever. They are are Duanmu Xi and Yang Jinghua.

Reading up to this part if you think I am a Japanese anime hater then...*sighs*. Please read the whole thing again.

I like the Japanese dub of Link Click but there was a c*** in the comments who said "uwu it's not in japanese so I won't watch it" b**** doesn't even understand Japanese. B just wants an 'authentic Japanese anime experience.'

I feared that tbhx would face this issue.

And if you find those people who go : Ahhh, Japanese or Chinese- same thing, even their script look similar- fuck you, fuck you, you loser-fuckrr sinophobe i hope your phone battery dies your charger malfunctions your phone your laptop restarts with all data erased I hope you reek of wet socks and your taste sand all the time fuck you

TO BE HERO X SPOILERS!

OKAY OKAY, HEAR ME OUT. Nice x Wreck.

(his villain design is sooo cool)

The way he barged in and was like "If I can't have you- NO ONE CAN!" and I was sitting there shocked like, ayo??

The little flashback sequence?? THEY LOOK SO ADORABLE TOGETHER AWWWWW.

WHY IS IT ALWAYS THE WHITE HAIRED AND BLACK HAIRED ONES

"Now, our dreams of becoming heroes, were shattered long ago."

THEY WERE SO DOOMED AND IM A SUCKER FOR THIS TROPE

(I'm only shipping them because I think they look cute together and that I LOVE this trope.)

made me think of some of you <3

Bath time with little scientists

(Cottage by the stream!!)

Hey guys let me tell you about advance fee scams

I hope y'all are familiar with these in this day and age, especially my artists out there, because they're incredibly common.

About half an hour ago I posted a drawing and tagged it #artists on tumblr, and very quickly received this comment.

My scam radar went off immediately, due to the generic blog name and lack of any emotion in the comment, but I decided it might be an entertaining venture so I dmed them. They asked for a drawing "of these", and sent me a random selfie. I got the details and told them it would be $15, and they promptly offered me $300. At this point I know it's a scam, but I play along for funsies and give them my paypal. Shortly, they send me this image for "confirmation" (I blocked out my email)

And they began to insist that I checked my email. I looked in my spam folder and found the following email.

This is fake. This is not a thing. And the "you're to refund the $200.00 back" is the scam. They send vaguely official-looking emails at you to "prove" that they sent you the money, then have you send them $200 (or however much the scam is for). Then, surprise surprise, you're out $200.

I continued to play along for a bit, and in the second email "Paypal" told me that I had to refund the $200 before they could "credit the $300 to my account", along with these lovely threats.

And yeah, it's silly. But it's not silly if you don't know and get scammed. So. Spread, please! And thank you very much to @mlaurel for the opportunity to get these screenshots.
